MMPR/X-Men: Big Trouble in the Big Apple
At Times Square in New York City, people were running away in terror. The Juggernaut was tearing up anything he could get his hands on while Mystique watched and smiled as people ran. While Juggernaut was doing his damage, Rita was firing bolts from her staff, laughing at the destruction her magic was causing.
But their joy was short-lived as the sky suddenly darkened. A lightening storm was brewing, but Juggernaut and Mystique looked up into the sky, knowing the true cause. Rita looked up as well as a black woman with white hair dressed in a black costume and cape with a lightening bolt going down her chest hovered in the air. The woman's eyes turned white as she shot lightening from her hands. Rita and Mystique leaped out of the way while Juggernaut simply took it.
Juggernaut said, "You may be able to take out Rita and Mystique with your lightening, Storm, but you know you're no match for me!" Juggernaut picked up a car, intending to throw it at her. But Storm used her lightening to charge it with electricity. This was enough to cause the so-called "unstoppable force of nature" to scream with pain as the electricity surged through him. He fell down, the car falling on top of him.
Rita said, "Try this on for size, Storm!" She held up her staff and was about to fire when it was shot from her hands. She turned to see the Blue and Green Rangers and snarled as Billy holstered his Blade Blaster.
Storm landed near the two Rangers and said, "I've been expecting you, Rangers."
The Green Ranger asked, "What's going on here, besides those creeps causing chaos?"
Storm never got to answer as Juggernaut suddenly burst back to his feet, destroying the car. Jenny said, "Um, never mind."
Juggernaut asked, "When are you going to learn that nothing can stop the Juggernaut?"
"No one is unstoppable," retorted Billy.
"Oh, yeah?" asked the Juggernaut. He promptly charged and took down both Rangers as well as Storm.
As the three heroes got to their feet, Billy snarled, "If that the way you wanna play."
He and Jenny then called, "Metallic Armor, power up!" With that, both Rangers were able to unmercifully attack Juggernaut with increased speed and strength. But Juggernaut took them down by slamming his fists in the pavement, causing a mini-earthquake strong enough to knock both Rangers down, demorphing them from their Metallic Armor as well.
But Storm said, "Oh, no you don't!" She then created a tornado that picked him up and threw him across the city.
Mystique growled and said, "That won't stop him. But why let Juggernaut have all the fun?" She then changed into the Blue Ranger and said with his voice, "Blue has always been my favorite color." She then began charging the real Blue Ranger.
The real Billy said, "You may look like me, but you don't fight like me." Just as she almost got to him, Billy punched her, knocking her down. As Mystique changed back into her normal self, Billy said, "Normally, I wouldn't hit a lady, but you, Mystique, are anything but that."
Meanwhile, Rita had gotten her staff back and said, "Well, Green Ranger, I never thought I'd say this, but it's just you and me."
"You're darn right!" retorted Jenny. "I haven't forgotten that you tried to brainwash me and make my your daughter!" She and Rita then dueled, staff and Dragon Dagger clashing.
As they fought, Rita said, "You know, your brother once wore that suit. He served me initially, but then he betrayed me."
The Green Ranger said, "I know the story. Then you used a magic candle to drain his powers, and then Zedd finished the job for you. It's a shame you can't do that to me. Besides, why wouldn't he betray you? You're nothing more than something that rhymes with 'witch' and starts with a 'b!'"
"I'll make you regret that remark!" screamed Rita. She shot a bolt from her staff, but Jenny deflected it off the Dragon Dagger. The shot then went back to Rita, taking her down screaming. As she got to her feet, Rita snarled, "You think you've won, don't you? But you haven't!" Jenny looked at her confused as she teleported away.
Mystique surprised Billy as she knocked him down. She turned to Storm, but was taken down by her lightening. Storm landed and stood by her fallen body, along with the Blue and Green Rangers. Weakly, Mystique said, "You may have . . . beaten me . . . physically . . . but . . . I've won. When the ball . . . a gene bomb . . . reaches the top . . . of Times Square . . . it'll explode, . . . killing . . . all humans . . . in the city." She then slipped into unconsciousness.
The Green Ranger looked up and said, "Look! The ball has almost reached the top!"
The Blue Ranger then hit his communicator and said, "Alpha, teleport that bomb out of here!"
"Right away!" came Alpha's frantic voice. Almost an instant later, the ball was teleported into the sun, causing it to explode harmlessly.
When it was done, Jenny said, "Whew, that was close."
Storm nodded and said, "Agreed. But it's not over yet."
